Ask HN: How do you prefer to spend your weekends?

Reading HN.

how would i prefer ? Couch surfing... how do i usually spend ? Working by morning and running errands with mrs.

Playing games and reading HN/the internet. Going out for drinks. There should definitely be more gym in there in place of all of those things.

Ever actively switched off: videogames, gym ( if I didn't go enough in the other days), cleaning the house, going out, oversleeping and, in general, relaxing

Playing golf.

Do as little as possible... e.g. sleep, eat, drink with friends, read books and watch tv...

I think I get more work done on the weekends then I do the rest of the normal 5 day work week.

I just like working, so on weekends, I either work on a side projet or I work for a startup.

Working let me build things, and be creative, I can't manage to stop working. If I don't work I feel like my time is lost

Saturday - Chess club in the morning followed by a leisurely lunch/reading in a comfortable coffee shop.

Sunday I spend with the family.

It wasn't intentional but having Saturday to myself til the evening meal is awesome for unwinding from a busy work week, everyone needs (or at least should try) genuine unplugged alone time (particularly so for natural introverts like me).

With 3 & 5 yr old there is a lot to do and not much choice to do a tonne of leisure activities. If I get some spare minutes I'll do some hacking on some side projects, go for a walk, grab a coffee or something.

I prefer not to distinguish weekends from weekdays. So every day is a mix of work, hobbies, and play.

Every other Saturday I help out at a cat shelter, then have lunch at my "Saturday" cafe and work on my personal project while there. That evening I usually make cat food, watch dumb YouTube videos, and work on my project some more. When I'm not going to the shelter I sleep in a little and then go to the gym instead.

Sundays are usually chore days focused on animals and cleaning (well, we're trying to get better with the cleaning). This is when I do a water change for the fish, go shopping for meat for the cat food (and then prep the food), get any other cat supplies I might need, take the cat/s for a walk or supervise them on the porch, and tidy the house. Once all the pressing chores are done I work on my personal project and watch dumb YouTube videos.

Spending as much time not under a roof as possible. This typically means whitewater kayaking or climbing. This is the only way I can stay sane while having a desk job.
